HTML DOM Reset object


Reset object

In HTML forms, every time a label appears, a Reset object is created.

When the reset button is clicked, the values of all input elements in the form that contain it are reset to their default values. The default value is specified by the HTML value property or javaScript's defaultValue property.

The reset button triggers the onclick handle before resetting the form, and the handle can be canceled by returning fasle.

You can access a reset button by traversing the form's array of elements, or by using document.getElementById().
